Biology:Bramoides

From HandWiki

Bramoides is an extinct genus of marine ray-finned fish that lived during the lower Eocene. It contains a single species, B. brieni, known from the London Clay.[1]

It is generally considered an early pomfret, hence the name Bramoides (meaning "similar to Brama"). However, this placement has been doubted by other authors, although alternate placements have not been suggested.[2]
